(Clearwisdom.net) I am a Falun Dafa practitioner living in Fushun City, China. In July 1999, all the newspapers started defaming Falun Dafa and Teacher Li. In October when I went to Beijing to appeal and to clarify the truth about Falun Dafa, I was illegally arrested and sent to the Dashagou Detention Center in Qingyuan. In the evening, the warden instructed two inmates to tie the cords of a power generator around my wrists, and then started the machine to torture me with high-voltage electricity. Next they tied the cords around my ankles and shocked me. My whole body became contorted and I fell onto the floor, but the inmates pulled me up and continued the torture.
Seventeen days later, Lin Kejun, the head of Ying'emen Township, Qingyuan, took me back to my hometown. On the way back, I replied in the affirmative to his query on whether I wanted to go appeal again. Forcing me to pose as if riding a motorcycle, he beat my head with a thick plastic hose until my face was swollen and I was sweating profusely. Then he handcuffed me onto the radiator and told me that according to directions from his superiors, it was alright to use torture methods on Falun Gong practitioners, and any deaths caused by the torture could be reported as suicide cases.
I was arrested at a materials production site in February 2001 and was sentenced to eight years of imprisonment at the Shenyang No. 2 Prison. I went on a hunger strike for five days and was force-fed twice. I was later transferred to the Lingyuan No. 1 Prison. When I was seen making a Falun Dafa banner, the head warden, Guo, ordered several wardens to handcuff me and forced me to kneel down by shocking me with electronic batons. My refusal to curse Teacher provoked the wardens to beat me and shock me with the batons. Later, I was detained in a small isolated cell, handcuffed behind the back for ten days, and then handcuffed in front for another ten days. I developed pulmonary edema (fluid accumulation in the lungs)in the right side of my chest because of the torture and was sent to the hospital.
In the fall of 2003 I went on a hunger strike for 15 days, during which time I was locked in a dark, damp isolated cell and handcuffed to the bed to be force-fed. One day, the inmate who was in charge of supervising the cell, Wu Jianning, hit me on the neck and bound my limbs tightly to the bed. I shouted "Falun Dafa is good!" and several inmates jumped on me and stuffed my mouth. I passed out a couple of times. The perpetrators watched me in turns, did not allow me to sleep and kept beating me at regular intervals to keep me awake. One of the inmates hit my legs with a rubber hose and struck my ribs with his fists. The pain from this beating lasted for several months. The other torture methods included burning my palms with a stainless steel mug full of boiling water, stinging my middle fingers with needles, pulling my beard, and preventing me from using the toilet.
One night, my dry lips started peeling and I could not breathe. After experiencing severe twitching, I felt that my breathing and heartbeat had both stopped. A few prison doctors came to measure my blood pressure and punched my soles to revive me. Afterwards, they handcuffed me even tighter, which caused me to faint several times.
In January 2005, I was transferred to the Fushun No. 2 Prison. Not wanting to cooperate with the guards, I refused to put on the prison uniform, did not answer during roll call and refused to carry out the forced labor work. This resulted in several beatings and no family visits allowed for over half a year. I was informed that this had been done with instructions from "above."
